Brock Purdy is the future for the 49ers and will start over Trey Lance next year.

I don't know how Trey Lance is gonna come back and take that job from Brock Purdy. The way that Brock Purdy's playing, he's playing as good as you can possibly hope. I think Brock Purdy's the future for the 49ers.

Brock Purdy remained the starter for the 49ers, and Trey Lance was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in August 2023.

I would like to see Geno Smith return to the Jets because he would be a great fit there.

Geno Smith is worth more to the Seahawks than he'd be worth for any other franchise out there. ... the only one that I would like to see Geno Smith go back to more, I would like to see him go back to the Jets. ... I actually think that he'd be a good fit on the Jets.

Geno Smith signed a three-year contract extension with the Seahawks in March 2023, effectively ending any chance of a return to the Jets at that time.

Brock Purdy is the best Mr. Irrelevant of all time

I'll say this and I have no idea who else is on this list. I'm gonna say right now. Brock Purdy Best Mr. Irrelevant of all time. He's one of one, the best Mr. Irrelevant.

Purdy has since made multiple Pro Bowls and a Super Bowl; no other Mr. Irrelevant has come close to his success as a starting QB.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
